Partner raises to 4. The Q is led. What is your plan?
Play low from both hands.
Win the A, draw trump (they are 2-1) and exit in a minor suit.
Win the A, draw trump (they are 2-1) ending in hand and play a heart to the queen. If it wins, discard a losing minor-suit card on the A.
Win the A, cross to the K and take a heart finesse at trick 3. If it wins, discard a losing minor-suit card on the A.
Win the A, draw trump (they are 2-1) then try to set up the hearts (A, heart ruff, etc.)
Win the A, play the A and trump a heart high in hand. Assuming the K doesn't fall, cross to dummy using trump entries to try to set up the hearts.
